Chin Chiang and the Dragon's Dance by Ian Wallace
Winner of the Amelia Frances Howard-Gibbon Illustrator Award From the time Chin Chiang stood only as high as his grandfather's knees, he dreamed of dancing the dragon's dance. Now the first day of the Year of the Dragon has arrived, and Chin Chiang is so scared that he wants to melt into his shoes. Chin Chiang is a most appealing small boy, whose plight will touch readers young and old. Correlates to the Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts: CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.K.7 With prompting and support, describe the relationship between illustrations and the story in which they appear (e.g., what moment in a story an illustration depicts).
